Folks,

OG:

Many ladies of my acquaintance claim hard can be very good. I suppose they mean hard cash? As any of them would tell you, women never lie, so, unless they are lying, it must be true. 🤭

Indy Car's biggest race of the year unfolds Sunday at 12:15 p.m. ET with the 102nd running of the Indianapolis 500 at the Brickyard. Aexander Rossi is the Vegas favorite at 8-1, followed closely by Ryan Hunter-Reay, Will Power and Helio Castroneves at 10-1.

Now that the Indianapolis 500 field is locked, SportsLine simulated the event 10,000 times and the results were surprising. I rerad the model says Danica Patrick, who is getting 20-1 Indy 500 odds for her final career race, finishes outside the top 10.

Since last mentioning her I have done more research Jens. Patrick, the only woman to win an IndyCar race, has six career top-10 finishes in the Indianapolis 500, but hasn't raced in this event since 2011. She's the sentimental favorite for many, but the model doesn't love her chances to contend this weekend. Although because a top ten finish is so unlikely for her, it might be a tremendous boon for odds makers and a few brave betters in Las Vegas. winkngrin
